Green for Growth Fund 2018: Impact Report

The Green for Growth Fund (GGF) aims to enhance energy and resource efficiency as well as foster renewable energy in the Southeast Europe Region including Turkey, the European Neighborhood Region-East, and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). This is achieved predominantly by providing dedicated financing to businesses and households through partner financial institutions and through direct financing of eligible projects.

This week, the GGF is proud to share its latest Impact Report, which highlights the fund's achievements in making its approach to sustainable investment wider – e.g. by building up significant portfolio in the Middle East and North Africa; deeper – by raising awareness of the benefits of green investments in its regions of operation; and broader – by including resource efficiency in its measured impacts.

In addition, the report features success stories of the GGF’s final beneficiaries that reflect the different facets of the fund’s investments. From supporting the nascent biogas sector in Egypt to promoting energy efficiency awareness among rural and urban households in Kosovo, the report sheds light on the fund’s efforts to mainstream financing of green energy and energy efficiency. It also features two new video stories showcasing how the fund is promoting energy efficiency and renewable energy in key economic sectors in the European Neighbourhood region.
